Derek Prince Legacy Radio International

Today we’ll hear the very personal story of how God joined Derek to his second wife, Ruth, after he was widowed. As you listen, you’ll see how God worked according to His own unchanging principles for marriage. You’ll be encouraged in hearing God’s faithfulness to accomplish His will in the lives of two people committed to him.

Today’s broadcast is very special, because we are going to hear the story of how Derek met and married his first wife, Lydia. In their marriage, God’s pattern for bringing two people together and blessing their relationship is clearly seen.

How do we know whether or not we should marry? To miss God’s plan either way is to miss God’s highest. And Derek provided us with a wealth of knowledge about how to answer that question.

Today we’re going to learn about God’s standard for marriage. Let’s listen… you’ll be encouraged to hear that God is in the business of forming the exact right mate for you and He will connect you with the person of His choice.

God Himself decided on the perfect mate for Adam, and created her specifically for him. But why did he allow him to feel the lack of a wife before brining them together? You’ll discover the answer to this as well as learn three reasons the Bible places such a great importance on marriage.

The initiative in world affairs is to bring this age to its close—not through the people of this world but with the Church of Jesus Christ. The Church is God’s representative, the body of Jesus Christ in the earth, and God will never allow the initiative to pass into other hands while the Church is here as the representative of His Son, Jesus Christ.

Jesus said, “The harvest is the end of the age.” The final harvest of souls will be preceded by an outpouring of the latter rain such as the world has not seen. We must be ready, for harvest time is short and God has invited us to be a part in it.

Jesus has a program, a plan for how the unity of the Church is to be accomplished, and He has provided the means through people. We have to commit, submit, and then fit into the fully functioning body of Christ.

How the world would be moved if they could see all of Christ’s church together in unity! This is what Jesus prayed for. Why should we not believe that God will answer Him? He showed Ezekiel a valley full of dry bones and told him what to prophesy to bring them together and they did. Surely, God can breathe on His church and bring us together too.

What is the church to look like as the glorious bride of Christ? Today we look at what Christ has provided to the Church to help her make ready. Then we find out what we must do to clothe ourselves in fine linen, which is the righteous acts of the saints.

God has said He would gather Israel back to their land and the nations can either be part of blessing them or suffer the consequences. The nations determine their destiny by how they respond to the restoration of God’s people. You cannot have a neutral attitude. Get in line with what God is doing and pray for and bless Israel.

Jesus is seated at the right hand of God in the heavenlies as King of the universe; far above all rule and authority and dominion. We have been raised up and seated with Him there and we must learn to rule with Him. This is what He wants for us and has made available!

Understanding that God is more concerned with people than things is of utmost importance. The keyword used in this message is restoration. God wants to restore to His people all that belongs to them.

How should we respond to end-time events? With optimism, commitment and by aligning ourselves with God’s purposes! Derek speaks prophetically of and to young people giving their all to serving God in His end time army.

The stage is set for the last scene of the end of the age to be played out. In the backdrop there are two contrasting color schemes: one is dark and somber and the other, brilliant and luminous. This world and its people are cloaked in darkness, but the people of God are set in brilliant light.

What is the sign of the church of Jesus Christ? In Acts Peter quoted Joel’s prophecy that the Holy Spirit was being poured out. The latter rain was falling and still is today empowering the church and fulfilling biblical prophecy.

In 1948 the state of Israel was born and became a nation in its own land. Jesus’ analogy of the fig tree budding and then other trees putting out leaves, has become a reality. Derek relates some of his personal experiences of seeing these things happen, and how the Scriptures have prophesied them.

Jesus gave His disciples a list of signs of the end of the age. Derek looks at these, stressing that lawlessness leads to lovelessness, not just in the world, but among Christians as well. We must guard ourselves and continue in the true love of God.

Today on the broadcast you’ll hear Derek explain just what happened during the days of Lot. As you listen, you will discover a startling similarity with those days and today. Fortunately, as Lot and Noah were both rescued, so will the Lord be faithful to His righteous ones.

Jesus said, “Just as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be in the days of the Son of Man.” Intense pressure and penetration from the occult realm, universal corruption of thoughts, the earth filled with violence, and widespread sexual corruption and perversion, all of which were rampant in Noah’s days. Do we not see them coming into full force in our world today?
